The pig farmers are critical of other countries’ import freezes: “Should have stopped imports to Sweden”

For Johan Eriksson, who is a pig farmer outside Västerås and chairman of Sweden’s pig farmers, several countries’ import freeze on Swedish pork does not come as a surprise.
– It is not a shock to us that it turns out like this. After all, these countries have swine fever in the wild boar populations themselves. Had we acted as they do, we might have been able to avoid swine fever, he says.
